Opinion
CROSKEY, Acting P. J.
Plaintiff, Steven Pittelman, appeals from a summary judgment entered in favor of the defendants, American Medical International Inc., a Delaware corporation (AMI), and its directors 1 on his class action complaint filed on behalf of himself and other debenture holders. As we conclude that there is no fiduciary duty owed to debenture holders and there is no claim that the terms of the debenture have been breached, summary judgment was proper. We therefore affirm.
